Teachers could also show the parents some visuals showing how smoking ages your skin and yellow teeth. They could also tell parents what will happen to their kids if they don’t stop smoking. This would hopefully convince them to stop buying cigarettes for their kids, mostly fathers. It would be important to teach students about health problems and diseases smoking cause like cancer. Also, I think that having a motivational speaker common to talk to parents and teen and sharing experiences would lead them have a better communication.
Something can be done. Action can be taken to start to solve this problem.
